She and her sister [Edith] are deeply grateful to Nora for the 'beautiful present' of a copy of Henry Sidgwick: A Memoir, which they shall read with great interest.

Relates that their father always thought that when a book was sent to him he ought to read it before acknowledging it, but confesses that they cannot follow his example in this case, as it might put off their thanks much too long.
